An options contract or an insurance policy can be re-sold to another party without anyone needing specialized "service-like" knowledge. Generally you can classify something as a product if it can be re-sold without a specialist being involved.
You can't really re-sell a web developer.
- dools 12y agoYes! In fact my primary "content mission" is to promote good policies & procedures as a means of creating a sellable business, much in the same way that John Warrilow does.
- notahacker 12y agoYou can package web development into neat, resellable chunks, but however scalable it might ultimately be, selling scripts, templates and cookie-cutter CMS installations is a million miles from financial services and insurance: you're actually pitching at an audience who have lower budgets than you'd have for custom design and marketing projects, and facing plenty of competition. People in finance and insurance are highly paid precisely because regulators (and demanding clients) are persuaded that a certain level of service is required which avoids the appearance of competition from low end commodity products, and because the problems they solve are much larger than "how should I skin the company blog?"
